About us
Wellington Water works in partnership with Fulton Hogan (an Alliance) to improve three water services across the Greater Wellington and South Wairarapa Regions. The value of water (a precious taonga) sits at Wellington Waters heart. Our people are passionate about providing waters services for our communities and environment.
The Alliance outcomes are delivered through a combined workforce between Wellington Water and Fulton Hogan, which enables shared resourcing and innovative solutions for the regions water networks.
From 1 July 2026, a new chapter in water services begins. Tiaki Wai will take over responsibility for providing Three Waters Services to approximately 433,000 residents across the Wellington metro regions. Tiaki Wai will own the water assets it operates giving it greater independence to manage and improve water services for current and future communities.
